Seashell Cake
Used real shells on this one, soaked in very mild bleach solution for 24 hours and dried for one week.
Tinted the outer buttercream with about 2 tablespoons of dark dark cocoa to get a great "wet sand" colour.

Antonia? when u use real shell it doesnt smell? i mean after u do that with the bleach?
thanks..Antonia! one more thing what color did u use it is very nice i love it
This is stunning!
Not even a tiny bit of odor. I used about 1/8 cup of bleach to 30 cups of water, soaked them overnight, rinsed them in plain water again overnight, then dried for one week. Nice and clean, no odor.
Wow, lovely as usual Helen!

was the cocoa used for the cake icing or just the sand? Looks like it's brown sugar?
oh, forgot - it's beautiful
